Re: **2IF Grad Check-In**
Hi Everyone. Hope you all have a great week!
1. How many weeks along are you? 13w2d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? My NT scan and appt went great. Once they finally got the measurements they said everything measured and looked normal.
3. How are you feeling lately? I am feeling kinda normal, muffin top but normal. Still a bit tired, but when not tired I feel good. Still moody, and it comes out of nowhere, and especially when I am hungry.
4. QOTW: do you and DH get to spend any quality time together? If so, what do you enjoy doing together, and if not, is there any activity or outing that you want to try with DH? We are huge concert go-ers. Bummer that I am going to have to sit a few out this year, but that is ok.
Hey all! Good luck @GMC222!!
1. How many weeks along are you? 21w4d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Nope. Things are boring in that department.
3. How are you feeling lately? Good! Trying to get motivated to start thinking more about the nursery since I plan to make some stuff.
4. QOTW: do you and DH get to spend any quality time together? If so, what do you enjoy doing together, and if not, is there any activity or outing that you want to try with DH? We don't really do anything just the two of us; it's mostly stuff with DS. We used to golf together every now and then and go to concerts occassionally. Now we mostly go to the zoo, children's museum, etc.
October 2011 - DS (7)
July 2014 - Stillborn DD (24 weeks)
August 2015 - DD (3)
April 2018 - 5 week loss
1. How many weeks along are you? 14w1d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Passed the 3 hour glucose test!! So excited.
3. How are you feeling lately? Not too bad. A bit tired, but pretty tolerable.
4. QOTW: do you and DH get to spend any quality time together? If so, what do you enjoy doing together, and if not, is there any activity or outing that you want to try with DH? We don't spend a lot of time just the two of us together. Our schedules don't coincide too often, so when they do we spend it all together. I think when we go up north in a couple weeks we are going to try kayaking and possibly paddle boarding.
1. How many weeks along are you? I'm 34 weeks today and can't believe it!
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Doctors now have me coming in for weekly ultrasounds and NSTs so I had my first of these today. Baby looked great and was measuring right around the 70th percentile at ~5lbs 11oz!!! DD was born 5 weeks early and weighed in at 6 lbs so today made it very real!!! They also decided to just have me keep an eye on my blood sugars as I've been having some that are very low and some a little high. I also only have two more weeks of progesterone injections and oh yeah we scheduled my repeat csection date for July 24th if baby decides not to come before then!!!
3. How are you feeling lately? I'm feeling pretty good except for some hip and back pain physically but I'm starting to freak out a little because we are not ready with the baby's room and I'm praying this baby stays put longer than DD did.
4. QOTW: do you and DH get to spend any quality time together? If so, what do you enjoy doing together, and if not, is there any activity or outing that you want to try with DH? We haven't had much quality time together lately... Unless working on DDs big girl room and the baby's room counts? I definitely hope we get a chance for one more date night out though to maybe a nice restaurant before baby does come.
